Preserving water resources without harming local economies; encouraging rooftop solar energy without threatening electric utilities; and promoting urban agriculture in struggling cities.

The conference is being hosted by ASU Law's Program on Law and Sustainability starting at 8 a.m. on May 8, in Armstrong Hall on the ASU Tempe Campus. This new conference will serve as an annual, national event for legal academics conducting research in sustainability related areas.

More than 60 law professors from around the country will convene for panels and presentations on disaster law, climate change policy, natural resources law, land use and zoning law, and agricultural and food regulation.
